  • ‘Decision tunnels’

    The amount to be traded is determined when Goxx runs through one of two “decision tunnels”.

    Depending on which tunnel he runs through, the amount he will buy or sell the cryptocurrency changes in 20 euro increments.

    All of the data is rigged to a computer that makes the transactions in real-time on Goxx’s behalf.

  • Goxx’s creators

    Speaking to the BBC, the two 30-something German men behind Mr Goxx the crypto-trading hamster explained that the idea started as a joke.

    “We felt that everything keeps getting more expensive these days and building savings is super-hard to achieve with high rents to pay,” they said.

    “It seems like most people from our generation see no other chance than throwing a lot of their savings on the crypto market, without having a clue what’s going on there.

    “We were joking about whether my hamster would be able to make smarter investment decisions than we humans do.”

  • Crypto-trading hamster, continued

    The four-legged financial fiend was not completing transactions himself, of course.

    Instead, Goxx’s trading decisions were made inside a camera-rigged “office” attached to his regular cage.

    Every day, when he entered the office, a stream was started on Twitch and a tweet was sent out to his followers notifying them that trading had begun.

    The hamster then ran on an “intention wheel” that chose one of 30 different cryptocurrencies to trade.

  • A crypto-trading hamster outperformed market

    A hamster in Germany previously traded in cryptocurrencies and consistently outperformed the S&P 500.

    The furry animal, called Mr Goxx, was busy working since June, thanks to a specially adapted cage.

    He determined which currencies to buy or sell by running on his wheel or walking through one of two tunnels.

    Mr Goxx started trading on June 12 this year.

    The site states that the page is just for fun and does not offer financial advice.

  • Crypto wealth and luxury goods

    Cryptocurrency wealth is leading to a new generation of luxury consumers in the United States, according to Markets Insider.

    The news organization pointed to a report from investment bank Jeffries, which found young buyers are spending crypto winnings on expensive jewelry, apparel, and accessories.

    The group, comprised of people under 35, is increasingly buying artwork such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), in addition to luxury brands.

    While Chinese consumers are still the major force in luxury spending worldwide, the report said American buyers are set to propel luxury sales beyond pre-pandemic levels.

  • What is the Metaverse? continued

    Meta’s VR boss Andrew Bosworth said: “The metaverse is a set of virtual 3D spaces where you can share immersive experiences with each other when you can’t be together.”

    “What comes after the internet? Instead of looking at a screen, you get to be in the experiences.

    “You don’t have to experience it in VR. Most people initially will experience it on screens they already have.”

    Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg called it “the next version of the internet,” and predicted the true metaverse will be ready within the decade.

  • What is the Metaverse?

    The Metaverse has a broad definition. It is an internet, but it is immersive – so you live within it.

    The platform will have games, social networks, videos, shopping, health and fitness and more.

  • What are Altcoins, continued

    Simon Peters, crypto-asset analyst at eToro, said: “They build on the success of bitcoin by slightly changing the rules, economics or use cases to appeal to different users.”

    “Altcoins vary greatly in their use cases and practical application. They typically have a form of technology they underpin or provide a liquidity solution to a product or service.”

  • What are Altcoins?

    Altcoin stands for alternative coin, a type of virtual currency that uses the so-called blockchain to allow secure transactions. 

    Altcoin is a category of cryptocurrency rather than a currency itself, and there are more than 900 different altcoins available.

  • Alexis Ohanian on co-founder of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, Conclusion

    “I’ve never been more excited about the potential of the Internet,” Ohanian added.

    “And that’s largely thanks to Vitalik Buterin.”

    Buterin is the co-founder of Ethereum and also co-founded Bitcoin Magazine in 2011.

  • Alexis Ohanian on co-founder of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, Continued

    “No one person could’ve possibly come up with all of the uses for Ethereum, but it did take one person’s idea to get it started,” Ohanian added about Buterin.

    “From there, a new world has opened up, and given rise to new ways of leveraging blockchain technology—some of which I’ve invested in.”

    “Whether it’s startups like Sorare reinventing fantasy sports or Rainbow users showing off their NFT collections, none of this would’ve existed without Vitalik’s creation.”

  • Alexis Ohanian on co-founder of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin

    “Thanks to Reddit’s r/Ethereum community, I’ve had the privilege of following Vitalik Buterin’s career from early on, which is why I’ve taken a certain pride in watching his legacy grow,” Ohanian wrote of the programmer.

    “Sure, we can talk about the value he’s created as the platform’s co-founder, including Ethereum’s impressive market cap of around $400 billion, the dazzling world of decentralized apps and this year’s boom in the trading of NFTs.”

    “What makes Vitalik so special, though, is that he is a builder’s builder.”

  • Co-founder of Ethereum named a TIME100 most influential person

    One of the co-founders of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, was named one of Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People of 2021.

    Former executive chair of Reddit Alexis Ohanian praised him in a write-up for the piece.

  • What is a digital wallet? Continued

    As with other cryptocurrencies, people will be able to buy and sell libras on exchanges for traditional currencies.

    Facebook said that its alternative currency paves the way for smoother transactions and payments online.

    The project however faced regulatory resistance over concerns about security and reliability.

    In December 2020, Libra changed its name to Diem and moved its operations from Switzerland to the US as part of a “strategic shift.”

  • What is a digital wallet?

    A digital wallet is a gadget or piece of software that securely stores users’ payment information and passwords for numerous payment methods.

    It allows users to store cryptocurrencies, make online or in-store purchases, and track their finances.

    In 2019 Facebook said it plans to introduce a cryptocurrency that at the time was called Libra.

    The tech titan said it wanted to create a separate, private currency system to allow users to make cross-border payments more easily.

  • Robinhood prepares to launch cryptocurrency wallet

    Robinhood announced a new partnership with a blockchain data analytics platform ahead of its planned cryptocurrency wallet launch.

    Robinhood will use Chainalysis’ data, analytics, and software to meet compliance requirements and provide secure crypto transactions, Motley Fool reported.

    The partnership comes ahead of the planned 2022 launch of Robinhood’s crypto wallet.

    More than 1.6million people are on a waitlist for the new feature, according to Motley Fool.

  • Risks of Robinhood, part three

    In July, the platform was also ordered to pay nearly $70million in fines and compensation for misleading customers and outages.

    If you are seeking a discount broker and are looking to open an IRA account, you can check out the following platforms: Vanguard, FidelityTD Ameritrade, Merrill Edge, among others.

  • Risks of Robinhood, part two

    For investing individual stocks, make sure you check company reports, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, broker notes, and press releases so you can make the best decisions for your money.

    Another risk when choosing Robinhood along with other brokers is that they can restrict trading when there’s unusual activity.

    In fact, Robinhood faced some outrage earlier this year when it restricted trading on meme stocks including GameStop and AMC.

  • Risks of Robinhood

    When it comes to risks, investing alone is one because you’re not guaranteed to generate a profit and the value of your assets could fall.

    If you choose Robinhood to trade stocks and cryptocurrencies – then the game gets even riskier.

    Cryptocurrencies are not only difficult to understand but even tougher to predict when bearish trends in the market will take place.

    For example, cryptocurrency was thriving this year up until Elon Musk said that Tesla was halting the acceptance of payments in Bitcoin.

  • Can you trade crypto on Robinhood?

    Unlike most of its discount rivals, Robinhood offers 24/7 crypto trading through its platform.

    That means you’ll have access to trade major cryptocurrencies including, Dogecoin, Ethereum, and Bitcoin.

    Its crypto investors can buy or sell with a market order, which means it’s executed at the current market price.

  • What is Robinhood? Continued

    Unlike many discounted brokers, the company does not offer individual retirement accounts.

    The bulk of Robinhood’s revenue comes from order flow.

  • What is Robinhood?

    The Robinhood platform operates as a discounted brokerage that offers commission-free trading.

    Specifically, users can trade exchange-traded funds (ETFs), individual stocks (including American depositary shares), and options.

    You can also trade Robinhood’s stock thanks to the company recently going public at a $1.2billion valuation.

  • China’s crackdown ‘big opportunity’ for US

    China’s crackdown on cryptocurrency transactions “is a big opportunity for the U.S.”, according to Pat Toomey, the top Republican on the Senate Banking Committee.

    This comes as the US Securities and Exchange Commission lobbied for more regulations when it comes to cryptocurrency.

  • China’s crackdowns on crypto

    While crypto creation and trading have been illegal in China since 2019, further crackdowns this year by Beijing warned banks to halt related transactions and closed much of the country’s vast network of Bitcoin miners.

    The previous statement by the central bank sent the strongest yet signal that China is closed to crypto.

  • China’s statement, continued

    Bitcoin, the world’s largest digital currency, and other cryptos cannot be traced by a country’s central bank, making them difficult to regulate.

    The crypto crackdown opens the gates for China to introduce its own digital currency, which it is already working on and will allow the central government to monitor transactions.
